How does it work?

The Tallinn Card is valid from the first time it is used and remains valid for the period specified by the card type, i.e. 24h, 48h or 72h. Show the Tallinn Card at the admission desks in museums and sights and to sightseeing tour providers. To receive discounts in cafés, restaurants and shops, remember to show your card before ordering or making a purchase. In buses, trolleys and trams, just validate your card by touching it to one of the orange card readers (at all vehicle entrances) at the start of each journey.

When does my Tallinn Card become activated?

The Tallinn Card is activated the first time you use it and remains valid for the specified number of hours purchased, i.e. 24h, 48h or 72h. So you can buy it before your trip and start using it at any time during your stay in Tallinn.

Yes, entrance to all of Tallinn’s Top 10 attractions is included with the Tallinn Card.

Are all three lines of the Tallinn City Tour and CitySightseeing Tallinn – Open Top Tour free with the Tallinn Card?

With the Tallinn Card, you can take one tour for free. If you choose one of the above-mentioned tours as your free tour, then yes, the Tallinn Card is valid on all three lines during the validity period of your Tallinn Card.

Is public transportation - buses, trams and trolleys - included with the Tallinn Card?

Yes, the Tallinn Card allows unlimited free transport on Tallinn’s buses (up to No 68), trolleys and trams. Please remember to validate your card by touching it to one of the orange card readers (at all vehicle entrances) at the start of each journey.

Is transportation to/from the airport, port, railway station and bus station covered by the Tallinn Card?

You can easily use public transport for connections to/from the airport, port, railway station and bus station – it's all free with the Tallinn Card.

Tallinn Airport is just a 15-minute bus ride from the city centre. Bus no. 2 makes the trip, departing roughly every 20 minutes. The Port of Tallinn's passenger terminals are just a 5-minute bus/tram ride from the centre. Take tram no. 1 or bus no. 2.

From the railway station to the centre, take tram no. 1.

The Tallinn Card allows unlimited, free use of Tallinn’s buses, trolleys and trams during the card's validity period – so you may use it as many times as you need.

What is the difference between the Tallinn Card and a public transport smartcard?

The Tallinn Card is a city card that entitles you to free admission to museums and sights, a free sightseeing tour, unlimited free use of public transport, and other offers and discounts. A public transport smartcard is valid only on public transport. You need to pay a 2-euro deposit for your new smartcard, then load it with credit or buy different types of tickets for it. One smartcard can be used by multiple people (family members, colleagues, etc.). The smartcard is refundable (up to 6 months after the first validation) when you return it to the Tallinn City Council customer service desk (Vabaduse väljak 7, open Mon-Fri 8:30-16:00). Another option is to buy a single-journey paper ticket when you board. These cost 1.60 euros and are sold by the driver.

Is the Tallinn Card valid on consecutive days?

Yes. For instance, if you start a 24-hour card at noon today, it will be valid until noon tomorrow.

Is it possible to visit a museum more than once with the Tallinn Card?

No, the Tallinn Card is valid for only one admission to each attraction.

I am travelling with children – what about children’s cards?

Tallinn Cards for children up to 14 years old (inclusive) have separate prices. Keep in mind though that city transport, most excursions and most museums are already free for children up to 6 years, so you may not need a Tallinn Card for them, depending on which attractions you plan to visit.

Are discounts available for students/seniors/families/groups?

There is no special price for students, seniors or families. Groups of 10 or more are eligible for a 10% discount on their Tallinn Cards when they purchase them directly from the Tallinn Tourist Information Centre. Payment for the cards can be made either in cash or by credit card.

If I buy a Tallinn Card online, how can I get it?

The card will be waiting for you to pick up at the Tallinn Tourist Information Centre. However, if you send us an e-mail (info@btgroup.ee) naming the hotel in Tallinn where you would like to pick up your Tallinn Card, it will be delivered there. Please send the e-mail soon after ordering the card.

May I get a refund for the Tallinn Card or exchange it?

No, the Tallinn Card is non-refundable and cannot be exchanged for other types of cards.

Are museums and attractions open on public holidays?

Most museums and sights are closed on national holidays, but plenty remain open. You can find specific information on our website under "News".

How much can I save with the Tallinn Card?

The Tallinn Card entitles you to free admission to top city attractions, free public transport to all Tallinn Card destinations, a free city sightseeing tour and various other great offers and discounts. The more attractions you visit, the more you'll save.
